Mid Level
Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Pediatric Intensive Care (PICU) in Marietta, Georgia, starting January 20, 2026, for a multi-week assignment that places you at the forefront of critical pediatric care. In this role, you’ll bring advanced clinical expertise, compassionate presence, and a steady hand to families navigating some of their most challenging moments. Your work will not only stabilize fragile patients but also guide families through hope, clarity, and resilience. Beyond the bedside, envision explorer’s opportunities—Georgia’s diverse landscapes—from the serene Blue Ridge foothills and winding mountain towns to the vibrant city energy of nearby Atlanta—where culture, history, and natural beauty converge to create a rich backdrop for your professional and personal life.
Georgia is a tapestry of beautiful places and experiences. Picture winding mountain trails in North Georgia during a weekend hike, the charm of historic Savannah’s coastal streets, the welcoming pace of Marietta’s neighborhoods, and the dynamic arts and culinary scenes that abound in the greater Atlanta area. Whether you’re seeking quiet evenings by a quiet river or weekend adventures with friends and family, Georgia offers a balance that complements the demanding pace of PICU work. This setting isn’t just your workplace—it’s a place to recharge, reconnect, and return to a caring role with renewed energy.
Location benefits extend beyond Marietta. While you’ll contribute your expertise in a top-tier PICU unit, there’s also the flexibility to work across various locations in the United States, broadening your clinical exposure and expanding your professional network. You’ll collaborate with multidisciplinary teams across different hospitals, learning diverse protocols, participating in cross-institution case reviews, and bringing evidence-based practices to life in new contexts. This adaptability sharpens your clinical acumen, expands your professional horizons, and enriches your resume with a breadth of pediatric critical care experiences that few roles can offer.
In this role, you’ll manage comprehensive patient care for critically ill pediatric patients, including continuous monitoring, vital signs interpretation, ventilator support management, infusion therapy, and rapid response to clinical changes. You’ll partner with intensivists, pharmacists, respiratory therapists, and families to develop and implement individualized care plans, prioritize family-centered communication, and execute timely interventions. You’ll lead rounds, educate nursing staff and family members, and contribute to quality improvement projects aimed at elevating outcomes in the PICU. The position offers growth through exposure to diverse cases, evolving technology, and opportunities to mentor junior nurses as you extend your specialization. Expect working in state-of-the-art units with high acuity, where your steady clinical judgment and compassionate approach make a direct, meaningful impact on the most vulnerable patients.
Benefits to your career and lifestyle are significant. This assignment offers competitive weekly pay ranging from $1,453 to $1,549, with the potential for bonuses that recognize your expertise and commitment. Housing assistance is available to ease transitions, and extension opportunities allow you to tailor a longer-term presence in the PICU when you’re ready to deepen your impact. You’ll receive thorough support throughout your travel experience, including 24/7 assistance from the company’s dedicated team, ensuring you have reliable resources on call for scheduling needs, housing questions, or clinical support. It’s a partnership designed to empower you to focus on delivering exceptional patient care while enjoying the stability of a well-supported travel assignment.
Company values center on empowering healthcare professionals to advance their careers within a nurturing, collaborative environment. The organization prioritizes mentorship, ongoing education, and professional development, ensuring you have access to the latest PICU best practices, pediatric safety standards, and leadership opportunities as you grow. You’ll be welcomed into a culture that honors each nurse’s voice, encourages evidence-based practice, and celebrates teamwork. Across locations, the emphasis remains on compassionate care, clinical excellence, and a supportive network that helps you thrive in demanding circumstances while maintaining work–life balance.
If you’re a dedicated PICU nurse who thrives under pressure, values teamwork, and seeks growth through diverse clinical experiences, this is your moment. Apply now to join a company that recognizes your contributions, supports your professional progression, and stands with you as you shape the future of pediatric critical care.
